    Does anyone actually use the Opera Voice Feature? When you highlight text, you right click and select Voice and the text is read to you. Kind of Novel in its approach.

    My question for everyone is:
    Can anyone successfully adjust Confidence above the default (ie Level 2)? I set it to 10 and no voice occurs.

    It runs at a higher level, now. I don't know what I did but the voice sounds slightly more natural.

    It would have been great when I was a kid for Prank Calls. Now in the age of caller ID and call return, there's no more of that.
